What’s on the workbench this week?

A new section for Card Doc starts today. I’m going to try real hard to post something every week about my cards. What’s on the workbench will be snap shots of projects or cards I’m working on. This will give everyone a peek into how I work and maybe show some of the processes in designing and making a card.

This week I went flower crazy. I stumbled onto a Susan’s Garden link from Sizzix and just fell in love with her flowers. So I just had to have some. 🙂

My first flower is sitting there above the framelett label. I love the way they work but wasn’t too happy with the color. Soooo I had to get some new stuff to make realistic looking flowers. I’m going to try pastels.

And some water color pencils. I’ll be learning and playing and experimenting with all my new goodies this coming week. Hopefully my back will hold up better. I had a treatment last Wednesday to help with the lower back bulging disks in the lumbar part. So far it’s working. I hope it lasts a while.

Last week I did some wedding cards and my main web guy and photographer (that’s my husband) will be posting a wedding and baby card page, but for today here is a shot of one I made for a special friend.

Finally my husband surprised me with an order of stamps from rubber hedgehog. They have lots and lots of animal stamps and since I have a particular fondness for a certain long dog he got me a bunch of holiday wiener dog stamps that are just adorable.

Here’s frank-n-wienie and below is the bag sheet he made for me so I can find these awesome stamps next week.
